ok just a short review of SPDST first dvd.

The first thing I was really pleased with was how quick the delivery of it was. I ordered the dvd last wednesday, and it came today. Thats under a week, and I live in england.

Content- Sometimes the content was good, but more than that it was amazing. Just the overall fear factor or how cool the stunt looked was cool. The only downside is that there were only a couple of public humiliation stunts, but for a dvd like this there was no need anyway. The sheer greatness of the stunts made up for that. I was actually left wanting to see more by the end of the dvd, the hour that I watched seemed like nothing I was so hooked on it. The content overall is awesome, and I advise you to buy this dvd if you do not have it in your collection. Without giving to much away, my personal favourite part of the dvd was the bike stunts.

Editing- What first struck me was the suprising menu, which just made the dvd that much sweeter. The editing is also very good, with superb angles and tracking with the camera. The music all seemed to fit very well, which again made it that much better. One thing I like well was how you can edit to time the good moments exactly to the height of the music.

So overall an great dvd that I am going to watch over and over again for a long time coming.

To improve- Again, possibly some more public humiliation stunts could have made it better, but, as I have said, the stunts just eradicated the need for that, and as a HG dvd this is great. Also, possibly in the next dvd make it slightly longer. Althoguh the stunts were great and this is a superb dvd, it just finished a tad too early, but those two points wernt needed that much to improve on your first dvd.

I will definetly be purchasing a copy of the second dvd. Well done guys, you rule biggrin.gif Image file not present in the recovered backup

Nice review man. I've heard mixed views on this DVD but I'll probably end up buying it someday.

If you're interested in buying any other DVDs in the future I'd highly recommend Indecline Vol 1. http://indecline.com

cool yer, the thing is the content was quite good all round so there were no moments that really stood out for me that I could talk about and say 'wow that was insane' because I just have to recommend the whole dvd

yer I am actually trying to gain a good collection of HG dvds, so when I am older I can look back and see what I went through over and over again. and plus to generally get experience and see what people like e.t.c. e.t.c. biggrin.gif

Yeah, that's the real truth. To be honest I found it really boring, the only sections that I really enjoyed were 'project x' and that tobbogan shit at the end, but I don't think that was actual SPDST members.
The stunts and editing were a real let-down, especially after seeing trailers for SPDST2..

I will be buying number 2 though..
